If Toyota made a 1ton diesel, everyone else could just stay home. Well, fer me anyway. I still like my GMC, liked my dodge, and the power smoke was good except for those idler pulleys, the egr...

We rented a 172 in Kahului that came with an instructor and flew around Maui, Lanai, Molokai and back. Did some air work and review - best BFR ever. I think it was Maui Aviation or something like...

I'm sorry!

I did it online, but it was a chore trying to figure out their stuff. You have to start an account, obtain a "FRN" (FCC Registration Number), then apply online for the proper licenses, etc. Their...

I'm going to be visiting across the border fairly frequently from my new home, and now I've got 'em, so I don't care. When they nick me and say "well then, where's your restricted radio operator's...

Well, I got 'em both. We can all sleep better tonight knowing that the world is a safer place and I'm out about $200 bucks or so. Carry on.

I think they require US to have one when we talk to Canadian controllers or stations. I found it somewhere, probably first at AOPA, then in the regs. Don't remember now. I can speak just fine...

I always thought it was wrong, WRONG I say, for the FCC to compel me, an authentic regulation-followin' Murrican, to get a Restricted Radiotelephone Operator's license and a Radio Station License...

You can add an aftermarket one with a bit of DIY skills. Saved me a new SUV for the backseater. I think I spent $125 and got a nice color one. Works better than some of the OEM models.

I just bought a duramax GMC in Idaho. You can get it with a standard, extended or crew cab and a 6-1/2 foot or 8 foot bed on any of those. Or, you could do a bed delete and get a good flat bed or...

Meanwhile, in Alaska . . .

I recently had two ads on C****'slist about having an empty trailer heading north from Seattle to Anchorage. (one ad in Anchorage and one in Seattle). I would have hauled it for FREE. No takers;...

I guessed, ergo debet esse recta. I studied 43-13 long into the night, engaged in destructive testing in all configurations, spun both ways with skis and wheels, and conducted high speed taxi...

Mine is set up that way; I have a separate switch and breaker for the field.

Thanks, Steve.

"Why yes! They are tubeless!"

"No, you can't borrow them, and no, they won't go on a Cessna."

Huh-oh, that garage door seal is loose near the sill!

I tried to get some of those when I was rebuilding, but when I finally got a hold of someone, they couldn't tell me what the price was. I think the certification process had either just been...

I knew someone would come up with the right stuff. Thanks.

I had a set of those in my 12. They both leaked except when empty. They got bent when the wings folded up, so I replaced them with Wag Aero aluminum 18 gallon tanks. They made them as close as...

Thank you for saying it better than I did.

You'll need an FCC Radio station license ($160) for the plane and a Limited Radio Station Operator's license (RR) for yourself ($60) if you are going to talk to anyone on the radio in Canada. I'm a...

I like it!

Scary having the tail into the wind. Lots of pressure on the top of the wing if you aren't on floats. Been there, done that.

If you make your own gust locks, make sure you don't use a material...
